英语口译中的数字翻译

商务英语口译中的数字翻译21世纪的中国在政治、经济、文化、贸易等方面的对外交往更加频繁,口译作为国际政治、经济及文化交流的桥梁和纽带作用愈显重要。
随着中国市场经济发展的不断成熟,国际技术贸易和项目拓展愈来愈需要更多的国际商务英语人才及商务英语口译人才。
加之目前国内在培养口译人才时常常把语言培养和技能培养分而治之,商务英语口译人员在工作时会面临更大的挑战。
其中,数字翻译亦是一项难题。
从事商业或者相关工作,在询盘、报盘、订单、支付、谈判、仲裁等商务活动过程中,必然会用到很多数字。
如果译员译错,甚至是不准确,都会为客户带来重大经济损失。
一、明确汉英数字表达体系差异由于中西方文化的差异,思维方式的差异形成了数字表达的差异,这使译者在口译中感到束手无策。
而衡量翻译的两条基本标准就是:“准确、流利”(梅德明,2006)。
口译更要重视“准确与流利的有机统一”(陈苏东,2006)。
在商务活动中,数字翻译一定要做到准确。
所以,数字翻译是口译教学的重点,也是难点。
汉英数字互译时涉及数字单位的换算问题,译员的反应和换算速度会决定翻译的准确性和流利度。
英文数字是三位数为一个单位,而中文是四位数为一个单位。
Tr:trillion; M:million; Th:thousand; H:hundred中文四位一进和英文三位一进的差异决定了数字翻译不仅仅是语言翻译问题,还有单位换算问题。
因此,在时间紧迫的环境下,口译员要准确无误地翻译出大数字就需要熟练掌握汉英表达体系,快速换算出目的语表达体系。
例如:(1)six hundred eighty-five million,nine hundred fifty-five thousand,one hundred and twenty-nine tons六亿八千五百九十五万伍仟一百二十九吨首先在听英语时,按照英语三位数字体系记录下阿拉伯数字:685,955,129,从右往左分别是“千”、“百万”、“亿”。

英语表示数字口译

英语表示数字口译在汉英笔译和英语写作中,经常会遇到数字;哪些场合用单词表示,哪些场合用阿拉伯数字表示,往往使人难以确定,现行语法书中也极少涉及此类问题。
接下来,小编给大家准备了英语表示数字口译,欢迎大家参考与借鉴。
英语表示数字口译实际上,以英语为母语的国家,在书写数字时已形成几条约定俗成的规则,现总结如下供读者参考。
(1)英美等国的出版社在排版时遵循一条原则,即1至10用单词表示,10以上的数目用阿拉伯数字(也有的以100为界限),这条原则值得我们行文时借鉴。
如:That table measures ten feet by five.那个工作台长10英尺,宽5英尺。
The traditional pattern of classroom experience at the college level brings the professor and a group of 20 to 30 students together for a 45-to-50-minute class session two or three times a week.由一个教授和十名学生每周会晤两三次,每次授课时间45到50分钟,是大学程度课堂教学的传统方式。
(2)大数目用阿技伯数字表示显得更简洁明了,但不定数量、近似值用单词表示较恰当。
如:There are 203817 voters on the electoral rolls。
选举名单上有203817个投票人。
Nearly thirty thousand voters took part in this election.近3万个投票人参加了这次选举。
(3)遇到日期、百分比、带单位的特殊数字,通常用阿拉伯数字。
如:Maximum swivel of table is l20.工作台的最大回转角度是120度。
又如:①3rd march l991或3 march l991; a discount of 5 percent(5%的折扣);②purchased 7 yards of carpet(买7码地毯);③ordered 2 pounds of minced steak (订购2磅剁碎的肉)。

如果涉及的数目和单位是不定数,可用单词表示。

②at least ten yards away(至少有10码远);
③hesitated for a moment or two(犹豫了片刻);
④i have warned you a hundred times(我已经警告你多少遍了).。
